I'm from a town about 30 miles north of Washington, D.C. called Olney, Maryland and it is still a place I like to call "home."  I started singing and dancing at a young age, mainly because my older sister did too. We grew up in a family who loved playing games, traveling, watching movie musicals, going to concerts, and listening to everything from Glenn Miller to Chicago to James Taylor to Huey Lewis and the News.

I went on to study music at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee and graduated with a BM in Musical Theatre. Nashville is one of my favorite cities in the U.S. I try and go back to visit as much as I can- what a wonderful, innovative, warm, and creative place. If you are an artist and haven't been, I highly recommend you do. You'll be inspired.
 
In 2011, I joined the national tour of Beauty and the Beast as an ensemble member and that is where I met a handsome guy named Michael Haller, who played Lumiere. As it turns out, the candelabra and the dancing fork were a perfect match. We've been married since August 4, 2013.

August is a popular month in our family- our daughter, Genevieve, was born on the 3rd in 2021 and our son, Jack, came into the world on the 6th in 2025. These little ones have changed us forever.
 
We are currently based in Phildelaphia and when I'm not working or auditioning, I can most likely be found eating frozen grapes, rooting for the Steelers, practicing yoga, or watching The Great British Baking Show.
